Bumper Protection???

Bumper Protection???
Hello all,
I just got the Audi Q3, and naturally I want it to keep it in great condition. I live in NYC and park on the streets a lot, so I need to get some sort of bumper protection. Nearly everyone has the bumper bully, but when I go on Amazon to purchase one, none of them are compatible with the Q3.
Does anyone use a bumper bully on their Q3? How is it?
Thanks!

Have you checked out parkingarmor.com?
I live in Washington DC and sometimes park my Q5 3.0T on the street so I know how easily the bumpers can get dinged. I'm very pleased with my parkingarmor.com protector. It's made of a thick foam covered with canvas and is large at 42" x 12". The straps keep it secure using the D rings and the Velcro it comes with. The only fault is that careless drivers parallel parking can easily clip the corners of your bumper, and these protectors won't help with that.
I had the bumperbully, which is pretty much just a heavy rubber mat. It and the straps rubbed the bumpers of my previous Silver Gray BMW X3, marring the paint noticeably. I threw it out.
It's a chore pulling it out when I park on the street and putting it back in the hatch when I drive, but worth the effort to me.

Try this one, they have different sizes. Much more protection than the bumper bully, we have one for the Q7 and keep it in the cargo area and pull it out when needed. Don't drive around with any of these protectors out because they could cause damage to bumper while driving since it will move around.
